Gæsteanmeldelser for Torre Forese

Nuestra estancia en la Torre Forese ha sido perfecta. La torre está totalmente equipada y Luca es muy atento. El microondas estaba estropeado y Luca lo cambió en menos de 2 horas (un domingo, ¡genial!). Hay un aparcamiento gratis al lado y unos restaurante muy buenos. Figline Valdarno es encantador y con comunicación comodísima para ir a Firenze (tren de media hora).
El único inconveniente es la conexión de internet wifi. Es lentísima y no permite hacer uso de ella.
[English translation courtesy of Easy Reserve]: Our stay at Torre Forese has been perfect. The tower is completely equipped and Luca is very attentive. The micro-wave was broken and Luca changed it in less than 2 hours (on a Sunday, by the way!). There is free parking nearby, and some very good restaurants.
Figline Valdarno is beautiful, and it offers very good connections to Florence (about half an hour by train).
The only inconvenience is wifi, this is very slow and it can hardly be used.
[Counter comment from the owner]: Regarding the internet access, at the moment there is a contract for 500 MB per day, once the MB have been used up the connection continues but slowly. The owner is evaluating other solutions!Vil du anbefale denne ejendom til en ven? Ja
This unusual facility is strategically located in an area that offers easy access to the surrounding Florence/Tuscany sights, whether it be shopping, historical interests, outdoor activities, or dining. It is filled with some unusual, interesting antiques and offers a unique experience in terms of living in this "castle-like" tower. The kitchen is well set-up with amenities, and the beds are comfortable. There are, however, some problems with parking. We were told that there was parking next to the unit and, if that was full, there was a large public parking lot a short distance away, which was true. What we weren't told was that the three close units were paid parking during "working hours" and the public lot was subject to being usurped for a town fair. Subsequently our rental Audi was towed and damaged in the process. While the owner graciously paid for the tow, he blamed me for not seeing the sign written in Italian that said the event was taking place. If we had been advised, we would have taken precautions. Now we are subject to paying damage for the car. I never rent a place if I don't have car access, and I want the terms expressed clearly. Is it free? Are there restrictions? Is it on the property or not? These are reasonable requests. The second issue was the extraordinary number of stairs. We had to keep our luggage on the main floor because it was impossible for us to bring it up five flights. It is a tower, but you don't realize how daunting until you're actually there. The steps are narrow and irregular, which doesn't help. In all fairness to renters, I think your company has an obligation to clarify the issues with this place. I would not stay here again.
Fantastic week. Close to everything. Parking a few blocks away but easy. Train to Florence, inexpensive and quick with many choices during the day. If stairs are a problem, this gorgeous antique filled tower may not be for you. Wonderful beds with lovely linens. Small kitchen. Would visit again.

Torre Forese was the perfect stop for the Tuscany portion of our honeymoon. The tower (or castle as we called it) is beautifully decorated. Has all the comforts of home. In addition it is in the FABULOUS town of Figline. I can't say enough about this little town. You can truly get a true Tuscan experience here. The town is friendly and everything is within walking distance. The week at Torre Forese was my favorite part of Italy. We used it as a home base to see the Chianti region and visit Florence and Siena. But mostly we love the little restaurants and local crowds. Hope to stay there again soon!!

This tower was better than advertised. Luca was easy to deal with and very helpful. Thoroughly recommend. Figline is a really lovely Tuscan town - there may be others that are a little prettier but they are full of tourists. Figline is a real town with friendly people.

This tower was better than advertised. My family and I had a great time here and Luca was a pleasure to meet. I would recommend this tower to anyone who wants to experience the feel of Tuscany and a small quaint town. The best time on our European Vacation.

We had a wonderful stay. The property was exactly as pictured. The only comment I would make is that because of so many stairs it is not a place for people with alot of luggage or someone who is not strong enough to climb stairs multiple times a day since each room basically is on a different level. We enjoyed the small town atmosphere and also the ease to travel to Florence or to visit the small towns in the region.

Torre Forese was ideal accommodation for two couples. Great property, great location, on the main train line between Roma and Firenze SMN, 25 minutes to Florence on the fast, 50 minutes on the milk run train. Good restaurants in the square, grocery store 5 minute walk.
